Why Laura L ost Her Beau.

Laura once had an hluent beau,
Who called twice O fortnight, or so;
Now she eits, sunday eve,
All lonely 10 grieve,
oh, where Is her Iecreant beau,
And why did he leave Laura soy
Why, he saw that Laura was languish-
ing, delicate girl, subject to sick head
aches, sensitive nerves and uncertain tenn
pers; and knowing what lifelong trii
is a fretful sickly wife, he transferred his
affections TO her cheerful, healthy cousin,
Ellen. The secret is that Laura's health
and strength are Slapped by chronic
weakness, peculiar to her sex, which Ellen
averts and avoids by the use of DR.. Pierce's
Favorlte Prescription. This is the only
remedy for woman's peculiar weaknesses
and ailments, sold by Drug lists, under a
positive guarantee from the manufact-
urers, that it will give satisfaction in every
case or money will be refunded. STE

from Winston, as follows: f" Ever since !

the doctors call hip disease, and which l
call white swelling. My hip was drawn
out of place. There was swelling at the
knee-joint, where there is a profuse run

Tomorrow is the day appointed fol-
the execution of the condemned an.
archists at Chicago, and the indi.
cations point to the conclusion tina,
the world will be freed from the
presence of seven very dangerous
characters--men who had in their
hearts indiscriminate murder on a
broad scale. To shoot down a person
in the heat of excitement may be ex-
tenuated under certain circumstances,
but to fling a bomb, freighted with
indiscriminate death into gathering
of citizens assembled lawfully, and for
no other provocation than that some
of them were officers charged with
keeping the peace and protecting life
and property, IS crime SO heinous
that it is wonderful tina tany sensible
person could be found to sign petit
ton for Communication of the death
penalty. There may be degrees Ct
crime among the condemned anarch.
ists-some more guilty than others
but the crime of the least of them
Is sufficient to warrant the verdict
and the consequent sentence. This
is not case where sentimentality
should be substituted for Justice.
Examples should be made. of these
men in the interest OF the public
welfare.

What Herman Demands.

The committee on grievances APP
pointed at Herman says i'm commun.
ication to the state railroad commits
sioners:
For the six months last past Her
man and vicinity has been. and is es-
pecially at the present time, suffer
ing greatly from the want Of wood,
and in consequence thereof the price
of such fuel has been greatly in
creased. Herman is wholly cut off
from obtaining its wood or any part
thereof on the Minneapolis and Pa.
cific or the Fergus Falls and Black
Hills railway by the failure aud omis-
sion of those railways and OF the St.
Paul, Minneapolis aud Manitoba rail
way to furnish ample or any transfer
facilities at their several points of
intersection in accordance with la W
and such scarcity of wood and such
unusual and excessive prices for said
fuel prevail at SAID point on account
of such failure and omission on the
part of said railway companies:
therefore, we respectfully demand
that under the powers vested in you,
said railway companies be compelled
TO furnish and provide suitable and
ample transfer facilities at the fol-
lowing points, to wit: Where st.
Paul, Minneapolis and Manitoba and
Minneapolis and Pacific railways in
tersect, between Utah and Cdmpbell;
where the st. Paul. Minneapolis and
Manitoba and the Fergus Falls and
Black Hills railways intersect AT
Breckenridge; where the St.Paul,
Minneapolis and Manitoba and Mime
apolis and Pacific railways iHtersect
at Elbow Lake. The present freight
charges on the St.Paul, Minneapolis
and Manitoba railway to and from
said Hermanare unjust anaunreason
able. We further call your atten-
ton to the fact, that under the tar.
if rate as adopted by said road on
July l.. 1887, and still in force. the
freight charges on p ackages of less
than 100 pounds have been largely
increased over the former rates even
of said road. Therefore we further
resp tctfully demand that such unjust
and unreasonable rates be reduced to
Il just and reasonable basis. The
passenger rates over said st. Paul,
Minneapolis and Manitoba ilway
are unjust, unreasonable and In ex-
cess of the rates charged for such SER
vice by other railways in the state
under substantially like conditions
and circumstances. Therefore we re-
specially demand that such rates be
also reduced to a just and reasonable
basis.
